Beltane, known to some as May Day, marks the halfway point between the spring equinox and the summer solstice. It is one of the eight Wiccan sabbats, and a time of fertility and new beginnings.

Beltane is also a time of feasting and celebration, and there are many traditional recipes associated with the festival. Some popular Beltane recipes include oatcakes, bannocks, honey cakes, and mead, all of which are associated with the fertility of the earth and the sweetness of life. Other traditional foods include fresh fruits and vegetables, such as strawberries and asparagus, which are in season at this time of year. Beltane is also a time when people come together to share food and drink, and potluck feasts are a common way to celebrate the festival. Many Beltane recipes incorporate herbs and edible flowers, such as rose petals, lavender, and dandelions, which are associated with love, beauty, and the power of nature. Whether you are looking for traditional recipes or new ways to celebrate the festival, Beltane is a perfect time to honor the bounty of the earth and the joy of life. Let's have a Beltane feast!
